I move amendment No. 21:


In page 9, lines 23 to 25, to delete subsection (3) and substitute the following:

"(3) Where a court in the State, a legislative body or another body established by statute proposes, when supervising a designated competent authority to waive in accordance with law a restriction placed on information received from a communicating Member State, a communicating third state or a communicating third body, the relevant designated competent authority shall--
(a) consult the communicating state or body concerned as respects the interests and views of that state or body in the matter, and
(b) take all reasonable steps to convey those interests and views to the court, legislative body or supervising authority concerned.".
